Help with updating ROM - HD2 General

I am quite new to this website and have been trying to read as much as i can about the forum. I recently purchased the HTC HD2 from Vodafone UK at the beggining of the month, i have had the phone for two weeks and love it!
After reading about the release of the new 1.48 ROM i went onto the HTC UK wesbite and tried to download the released ROM onto my computer, however after entering my phone serial number and clicking submit it says:
'Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device'
Can anybody help me with this my current ROM is: 1.43.405.1 (70124) WWE
I don't quite understand why it does not let me download the new ROM.
Thankyou.

Please delete this thread i have found the problem. Sorry for the thread, did not do my research fully before creating it!

-htc touch dual - can't upgrade to newer official firmware??? -

hey guys, I have been reading these forums but I am still totally stuck..
I have a HTC TOUCH DUAL - no network branding whatsoever, details:
rom version - 1.31.710.12
rom date - 12/05/07
radio version - 1.58.21.23
Everytime I try to download the new WM6.1 ROM from the HTC website, it says that my serial number is INVALID. So I found a serial number someone posted on the forums for the WWE 6.1 ROM and typed it in...and it worked, I downloaded the ROM. But then when I connect my touch dual thru activesync and launch the ROM install program, it says that the ROM is not suitable for my device....
My touch dual was bought in Australia. It is definately a REAL one.
Also I am a complete noob when it comes to those "custom roms" for touch dual. Can anyone recommend me one to install??? Do i need to change the radio and uspl also?????
thanKS greatly for your help guys---!!!!!
oh yeah, I forgot to add...
on the device information it says NIKI100
moderator can u plz close this thread?
i have moved it to the "nike upgrading forum"
thanks

HTC ROM Upgrade serial?...

Hi, I just got my Touch HD today.
I wanted to upgrade the ROM to the latest official ROM from HTC website, so i went to the HTC website to try and download the ROM, it ask's for the serial number of the phone, which i then entered, and it say's, "This software is not supported for this device". I tried different locations, e.g. Middle East, Africa, Europe, USA, ASIA, and still didnt work.
So i would like to know if anyone knows which versions of the Official HTC ROM is compatible and where can i get it? Or what other options do i have to update the ROM.
Vodacom South Africa.
Thanks
It's probably not a good idea to put all that info for the public (google) to see
so I suggest you edit you post and remove it....
anyway check out the rom forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=453
especially the stickies as they'll tell you what to do
But in a nut shell your problem is probably because you didn't buy your HD from htc
Mine's from orange and I have the same problem
if you look in the forum you'll find instructions to upgrade your rom
I found

by cRaCKwHoRe an absolute godsend
Thanks for the info.
Ok i managed to figure it out
used HSPL 156 and flashed to Official HTC ROM 1.57 WWE
seems to be working fine.
Thanks to the people of the forum.
Do you see any benefit compared to your previous ROM? Any change in radio performance?

Go to your settings tab and scroll down to "About Phone". In there, select "Software information". This will tell you the ROM version that you currently have (amongst other things).
The ROM upgrade on the HTC site is for unbranded versions only. If you want an official one for your phone then you have to wait until a Vodafone specific ROM is released. Alternatively, you can flash HSPL onto your device which will allow you to install any ROM, but this invalidates your warranty with Vodafone. If you do want to do that then do some reading in the ROM section. The stickied posts at the top of the forum are great for all levels, from total newbs to experts, so they should answer any questions you have.
Thank you very much aboput the tip.it was very hepfull
i will try to shrt it out since my rom version of my device is 1.43
I've got a HD2 with Vodafone and i managed to update to the last new ROM. I also had problems downloading it and eventually realised i was typing in O's (letters) rather than 0's (numbers). Perhaps try typing it in differently.
ah whatever happened to the good old days when an o was an o and a 0 was an ΓΈ.
My phone is not carrier locked and I updated with the previous (December) official HTC ROM without a problem. However, when I enter my s/n for the new ROM, it says it's not available for my region. I have a copy of the new WWE ROM, can I install it without a problem?

Changing the rom shouldn't change the serial number, double check you are using the correct serial (oh's as zero's perhaps?)

Am I Up To Date?

hi just got my hd2 a few days ago the software info is:
os 5.2.21845
manila 2.5.19202525
rom 1.43.110.2
radio 2.04.50.22)22)
protocol 15.26.50.07u
are there any updates i need to apply?
thanks
mark
well go to the HTC website... you'll be in for a surprise!!
i see theres an update to down,load but the serial number i have has lots of IO or is that 10's in it
also if i do the rom upgrade will i still need to install all the other updates or is this a fix-all?
Ive entered loads of combinations all seem to be invalid except one which states
Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
???
It sounds like you got your phone from O2, Vodafone or T-Mobile rather than a 3rd party like Phones4U. This means that you can't just download and apply HTC updates.
Fear not - go to the Leo ROM development section on this forum, put HSPL on your phone and then load the latest ROM update from HTC (v1.66). This includes all the latest updates.
Use this UK serial number to download the ROM upgrade:
HT9AZNW00968
wow thanks for that...
only 2 days in and im flashing a rom... how l33t of me lolz.

HELP

Sorry about starting a new thread but i couldn't find anything re my question i'm about to ask...
I own the HTC HD2 and have put the 1.66 rom on my phone, great everything is working great, however after alot of arguing with Vodafone they have now accepted to replace my phone with a new one..
Now here's the issue i need to find the original Software for my phone:
ROM: 1.43.405.1 (70124) WWE
ROM Date: 10/26/09
I've been onto HTC website and can't find it there so any help please would be great, if at all possible could you provide a link rather than having to look for it?
If i was to do a master reset would that put it back to the original?
I'm panicking as Vodafone have said my new phone will be here in 2 days... And if i don't put they phone back to the original then they won't replace it, i only put the 1.66 as i thought i wasn't going to get this sorted... Patience is a wonderfull thing and so is Heinsite...
this can be good starting point:
